Analysis of the seed fruit production efficiency in the Krasnodar region and ways to improve it

Abstract

The article examines the economic state and features of the fruit growing industry in the Krasnodar Territory, the main trends in its development in agricultural organizations, the area and yield of intensive orchards, problems associated with the sale of products and the dynamics of average prices. The assessment of the state support to the industry is given The dependence of the cost of 1 centner of pome fruits on the level of yield has been studied. The analysis of the dependence of the profitability of production and sale of fruits on the size of fruit-bearing orchards on farms and productivity is carried out. The optimal size of the areas for orchards in specialized organizations to ensure a high level of profitability of production has been identified, the “critical” level of yield of pome crops has been determined. The methodological aspects of determining the “break-even point” in fruit growing are considered. An improved model of the critical sales volume is proposed, taking into account the production specifics of the industry. Recommendations are given to improve the efficiency of production and sale of pome fruits.
